97LT1 10bolt into 85 Transam 10 bolt swap - Fittings?
Hi All,
I'm about to throw a 1997 LT1 firebird 10 bolt diff into my Transam and was wondering about the fittings.
My TransAM is a 1985 model and I think that's the shady one where all the fittings and connections for the brakes went from metric/imperial etc and just wondering how easy of a swap this will be.
Will the brake line fitting to the main lines connect up fine with the same threads etc, or will I need different fittings/adapters?
Also does anyone have a link to a good step[-by-step or pictures of the hand brake mods to get it to work properly?
As always any help is appreciated.
Thanks.
